JJ Lin: 'Reborn' after recent battle with ill health
Source: Yahoo! News
Local singer JJ Lin admitted to "longing for a relationship", but that sense of longing came to an abrupt halt with the onset of his earlier health problems. Speaking to reporters at a "Casio G-Shock SHOCK THE WORLD" media launch, JJ is a picture of health and looked relaxed flashing his trademark boyish grin and dimpled smile.
"After the sickness, I feel that I cherish my career even more. My vocal is my 'capital' and my 'weapon' so my career is where my focus is on now."
"I've met really nice girls but I'm not able to put myself through a long-term relationship so it wouldn't be fair to the girl."
It seems the homegrown talent is trserious about building his profession than tending to his emotional needs right now. See, not even his best friend's (fellow local singer Hong Junyang) nuptials was enough reason to push his love button. When quizzed further, JJ said he is 'envious of the couple' but maintained his stance that 'love must wait as career is his focus now'.
So don't be expecting any tittle-tattle of love life from JJ anytime soon for the 'reborn' singer who released his latest and seventh album last month, titled 100 days, now wants to channel his time and focus into 'making music that can be used to change lives'.
"Unlike 100 days, my previous albums are very fanciful, a little bit of trying to prove something [of sorts]."
"Music to me has always been about fun and something fancy [but] now I hope my music not only brings entertainment but changes lives as well," JJ explained.
The singer who took a year-long break from the music scene due to his recent ill health cited the period as 'the worst ever in his whole career'. According to JJ, he sank into depression and 'chose to close his heart and shut his room door on his friends and family'.
"I was so scared that I won't be able to go back to my normal self - to let people hear the JJ Lin that they used to hear."
And it was during those quiet days of reflection that JJ learnt the importance of 'cherishing'.
"I've learnt that cherishing what you have now is a virtue. To be able to make use of what God has given to you for a good purpose and not to take that for granted."
"From this album [100 days], this is where I'm going to take my music from now on, with more involvement in charity work and bring my music to the next level."
